We are witnessing the fallout of multiple generations from trauma.
Fathers and mothers beating their sons, emotionally manipulating them, and a society that masks abuse as “discipline” and neglect as “tough love.”
The result is physically broken, emotionally blind, hormonally castrated, and mentally enslaved men who are now being told that salvation comes in the form of a prescription vial.
Let’s stop pretending this is about microplastics, pesticides, or a sedentary lifestyle. Those are symptoms of men who lack control over their lives. The root is psychological and spiritual collapse, a war on boyhood, manhood, and fatherhood that’s been fought silently behind closed doors in the name of tradition, control, and social order.
You take a boy, beat him into submission, mock his tears, call him a “sissy,” deny him affection, crush his sense of self, and then you act surprised when he grows up with no fire, drive, and masculinity. When he’s addicted to porn and pills, when his self worf is built on the approval of others, and when he starts shooting up steroids just to feel something like a man, none of this happens by accident.
This was all engineered, and it’s working.
The messaging is relentless:
“You’re too soft.”
“You’re too angry.”
“You’re toxic.”
“You need therapy.”
“You need meds.”
“You need to comply.”
The drug dealer wears a white coat now and operates under the “law.”
You’re anxious or feeling down, let’s get you on SSRIs for life.
Ritalin and Adderall for boys who dare to be loud, energetic, and curious in a system built to crush them.
We don’t ask why a boy can’t sit still in a fluorescent-lit box for eight hours; we just sedate him. The side effects include infertility, dependency, and psychological insecurities.
Make men sterile, docile, and reliant.
Profit off their broken minds, all while keeping their spirits sedated. Pathologize the pain and profit from the prescriptions. Give them the disease, then sell them the cure.
Sell them birth control for men masquerading as “hormone optimization.” Call it HRT, TRT, or Testosterone Therapy, anything but what it really is: a chemical leash. Push it on younger and younger men, not because they have a medical need, but because they feel tired, uninspired, and disconnected, all symptoms of a broken system, not a broken body.
These aren’t therapies, they’re self-induced vasectomies wrapped in shiny branding and FDA-verified endorsements.
Make them feel just good enough to stay in the cubicle, swipe the apps, and trust their digital drug dealer in a lab coat.
Adding insult to injury comes when both parents are forced into full-time jobs to pay for shit they don’t need. Not because they want to, but because they have to feed the tax farm. Meanwhile, the children, our sons, are dropped into daycare, handed off to state-mandated programming, raised by screens and unqualified strangers.
Fathers are absent, both physically and emotionally, in this new modern world.
Masculine modeling is gone.
Healthy bonding is bypassed.
Physical punishment becomes the norm for a stressed and unstable dad.
Emotional intelligence is replaced with discipline charts and diagnosis labels.
And everyone keeps pretending this is normal.
Repeating crap like, the previous generation “had it right.” The belt was a “tool” that kept them out of trouble. That toughening up was pushing down unwanted emotions. That breaking their spirit was preparing them for the “real world.”
Now look around and all you see are generations of men too weak to lead, too wounded to father, and too ashamed to admit they were broken as boys.
This is not just a health crisis; it’s a war on masculinity, and the illusion being sold is that your weakness is your fault, but your strength must be outsourced to a pharmacy, a politician, or a fake guru. The solution is always external, never internal, and that’s exactly how they want it.
“He who conquers himself is the mightiest warrior.” – Confucius
But you’re still responsible. You were lied to, you were hurt, but you’re not a victim.
You’re accountable for what you do now.
You can keep blaming society, the system, or your dad.
Or you can reclaim what was stolen.
Build strength. Build discipline. Reject dependency. Reconnect with your fire.
The war is real, but so is your power.
